Alan and I slept in today - we didn't get up till 8. I was up at 1:30, he was zonked, then around 5 he woke up and I took him in with me. We both had yummy thomas's cinamon waffles for breakfast. I think Alan left *one* crumb of his.
Alan had his flu shot this AM. I thought his appointment was 9:15 or 9:30. While getting ready I checked the appointment card - oops 9 AM. So I was trying to call the doctor to say I'd be 10 minutes late. First the phone was busy, then the headhunter I'm dealing with about tommorrows interview called. At first he thought because of my high voice I was a child. Sigh. So I told him I'd call later. (I did).
Alan was pretty good with the shot. I'd given him tylenol beforehand. I thought I could weigh and measure him while I was there, but since I was running late I skipped it. I did ask about his allergic reaction, the nurse suggested testing. Then we went to Target. There was a Santa there. He gave Alan a matchbox toy (I let him play with the package, I'll put it away as it is too little for him) and a candy cane (again for me, not him). Alan stared but wasn't afraid. He makes friends everywhere - even with some little kids playing at the drs office :)
Came home, made an appointment with the allergist (they're always asking about Alan, I said I wanted to bring Alan for a visit, not an appointment - but alas I have to - I didn't bring him with me before because I was afraid of illness at that office*). And now DH (who is working from home today) and Alan are napping. DH stayed up late working last night.
* I only brought Alan once to an appointment of mine. I brought him to the eye doctor when he was under 2 months old. I figured he wouldn't catch anything there - he wasn't mobile to touch things (so no risk of pinkeye) and vision problems aren't contagious. I was afraid of people with colds and flu at the allergist.
